Irony: Jack Smith’s Team Admits Incorrectly Telling Court DOJ Turned Over All Materials

/0 Comments/in , /by

Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team admitted in a federal court filing in Miami this week that the government had not, in fact, given all of its evidence to the court for President Donald Trump’s defense team to review — the same thing Trump is alleged to have done.

Smith has charged Trump with 40 counts in the so-called “documents” case. Among them is the accusation that Trump caused his lawyers to tell the government that they had handed over all of the documents the government wanted, when in fact they had not.

The indictment against Trump alleges that he conspired with his staff to move boxes of documents, and to attempt to delete some video footage, without telling his attorneys, so that the final delivery of documents and video to the government was incomplete.

But in an ironic twist, Smith’s team had to admit to the court in a July 31 filing that it had not, in fact, uploaded all of the video footage that it had taken from Trump’s residence in Mar-a-Lago, Florida, to a platform established by the court for the defense to review it.

Trump Makes Vow About His Presidential Campaign if He Is Sentenced to Prison

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former President Donald Trump has vowed to continue his 2024 White House run even if he is convicted and sentenced on criminal charges.

Trump made the promise during a Friday appearance on “The John Fredricks Show,” a pro-Trump radio program, when asked whether his potential conviction would terminate his second bid for the White House.

“Not at all. There’s nothing in the Constitution to say that it could,” Trump said. “Even the radical left crazies are saying, ‘No, that wouldn’t stop!’ And it wouldn’t stop me either.”

Trump is currently facing multiple state and federal charges, including 34 counts of falsifying business records in New York, and 37 federal charges stemming from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into his alleged improper retention of classified records at his Mar-a-Lago home.

He pled “not guilty” to the New York charges in April and the federal charges in June. (Read more from “Trump Makes Vow About His Presidential Campaign if He Is Sentenced to Prison” HERE)

Trump Predicts New Indictment ‘Any Day Now’ to Distract From Hunter Biden’s Legal Saga

/0 Comments/in , /by

Donald Trump is bracing for an imminent fresh indictment and he claims the impending legal action will be a charade to obscure bad news for President Biden.

Trump bemoaned the supposed indictment in a post on Truth Social as Special Counsel Jack Smith mulls potential charges against him for the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and coinciding efforts to undermine the 2020 election.

“I assume that an Indictment from Deranged Jack Smith and his highly partisan gang of Thugs, pertaining to my ‘PEACEFULLY & TPATRIOTICALLY Speech [sic], will be coming out any day now, as yet another attempt to cover up all of the bad news about bribes, payoffs, and extortion, coming from the Biden ‘camp,’” Trump bemoaned in a Truth Social post.

Trump’s premonition coincides with closed-door testimony before the House Oversight Committee from Hunter Biden’s business partner Devon Archer who alleged the then-vice president was put on speakerphone for the first son’s business partners on roughly 20 occasions.

Trump on Impeaching Biden: ‘This Guy Has Stolen Millions of Dollars’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump, the leading Republican candidate for president in 2024, told Breitbart News exclusively that while he is not explicitly publicly calling for his successor, Democrat President Joe Biden’s, impeachment, he hopes Congress does the “proper thing.” . . .

“They impeached me over a perfect phone call,” Trump said. “This guy has stolen millions of dollars and done worse than that—look at what he’s done to the country with the inflation, with the energy, with taking away people’s rights, with the weaponized DOJ. No, they impeached me over a perfect phone call. Here’s a guy who has stolen millions of dollars and done other things that are so bad. Our country is in a position where it’s just so sad to see what’s happening.”

Asked whether he wants to see an impeachment inquiry against Biden proceed, Trump demurred, saying he did not wish to comment on it—but that he does hope Congress does the “proper thing,” thereby strongly suggesting he would back such a push. Even so, Trump made it clear he wants to let Republicans in Congress make their own decision on this front.

Trump Denies Trying To Delete Mar-a-Lago Security Tapes

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump denied deleting security footage from his Mar-a-Lago residence or ordering anyone to delete the tapes, days after Special Counsel Jack Smith hit him with additional charges related to his handling of classified documents.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that security footage from his Mar-a-Lago home had not been deleted and had been handed over to the federal government. Smith rolled out with three additional charges against the former president on Thursday and charged a third person, Carlos De Oliveira, in the case related to Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents, according to a superseding indictment.

“MAR-A-LAGO SECURITY TAPES WERE NOT DELETED. THEY WERE VOLUNTARILY HANDED OVER TO THE THUGS, HEADED UP BY DERANGED JACK SMITH,” Trump wrote in his post in all caps.

Trump claimed in his post that nobody had gone “to court to stop them from getting these tapes,” adding that he never ordered “anybody to delete them.” (Read more from “Trump Denies Trying To Delete Mar-a-Lago Security Tapes” HERE)

In First Rally Since Being Hit With Expanded Charges, Trump Calls On GOP Challengers To Drop Out

/0 Comments/in , /by

In his first rally since facing a superseding indictment in the federal case over his handling of sensitive documents, former President Donald Trump called on other Republican 2024 presidential candidates to drop out of the race.

Addressing a crowd in Erie, Pennsylvania, on Saturday night, Trump said, “Every dollar spent attacking me by Republicans is a dollar given straight to” President Joe Biden‘s re-election campaign.

He repeatedly named Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, mocking him as “DeSanctis” as he claimed those running for the GOP nomination are “wasting hundreds of millions of dollars that Republicans should be using to build a massive vote-gathering operation.”

The rally took place days after special counsel Jack Smith unveiled a superseding indictment against Trump, adding charges of willful retention of national defense information and obstruction. Prosecutors accused Trump and aides of asking an employee of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida to delete security camera footage so evidence could not be provided to a federal grand jury.

Special Counsel Adds New Charges Against Donald Trump; DOJ Adds Charges to Trump a Day After Sweetheart Hunter Biden Deal Exposed

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. Special Counsel Jack Smith on Thursday brought new charges against former President Donald Trump in the Mar-a-Lago White House documents case.

Smith charged Trump with one count of willful retention of national defense documents and two counts of obstruction.

Trump’s valet, Walt Nauta, who was previously charged in the first indictment, also received two new obstruction-related charges.

The superseding indictment also charged Carlos De Oliveira, Mar-a-Lago’s head of maintenance, with altering, destroying, mutilating, or concealing a document, making false statements, and conspiracy to obstruct justice. (Read more from “Special Counsel Adds New Charges Against Donald Trump” HERE)

DOJ Adds Charges to Trump a Day After Sweetheart Hunter Biden Deal Exposed

By Breitbart. The Department of Justice (DOJ) added three charges to the prosecution against President Joe Biden’s main political opponent, one day after the DOJ’s sweetheart plea deal with the president’s son was exposed in court.

While critics of former President Donald Trump celebrated, the juxtaposition of these two events is certain to lend weight and urgency to the charge that the DOJ is rife with political bias and continues to be weaponized.

As Breitbart News reported, the plea bargain that DOJ prosecutors reached with Hunter Biden’s lawyers fell apart on Wednesday after Judge Maryellen Noreika questioned its terms. Specifically, she queried a clause in an annex to the agreement — which she was apparently only shown right before the hearing — that would have given Hunter Biden immunity from any further prosecution related to his lucrative foreign business dealings. . .

The following day, Special Counsel Jack Smith filed a superseding indictment against Trump that added three new charges, plus a new defendant, Mar-a-Lago property manager Carlos de Oliveira, to the original case.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Update: Former President Donald Trump denied Thursday that the office of special counsel Jack Smith told his legal team that he should expect another indictment.

“My attorneys had a productive meeting with the DOJ this morning, explaining in detail that I did nothing wrong, was advised by many lawyers, and that an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country,” the former president stated. “No indication of notice was given during the meeting — Do not trust the Fake News on anything!” . . .

Former President Donald Trump’s lawyers were reportedly informed Thursday to expect another indictment, which would be the third indictment since the Republican frontrunner announced his presidential campaign.

According to a report from NBC News, Trump’s attorneys Todd Blanche and John Lauro met with prosecutors in Special Counsel Jack Smith’s office and were told to “expect an indictment” as part of the ongoing January 6 investigation.

Poll: Trump’s Lead Over DeSantis Grows Ten Points in Two Weeks

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump continues to dominate the Republican primary field as his lead over Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has grown ten points in two weeks, according to a YouGov/Economist poll.

The survey, published Wednesday, shows that 54 percent of registered Republicans and independents who plan to vote in their state’s Republican presidential primary back Trump. He has climbed six points since another YouGov/Economist poll taken between July 8-11.

Trump stands 36 points ahead of DeSantis, who registers at 18 percent. DeSantis has fallen off 4 points compared to a few weeks ago, when he garnered 22 percent support. The movement between the top two candidates marks a net gain of ten points to Trump’s lead over DeSantis this month.

Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who has surged in several recent national polls, has six percent support, which is good enough for third place. He has climbed four points in recent weeks, marking the largest increase in support in the field outside of Trump.

Former President Mike Pence, former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC), and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) tie at three percent, while one percent say they would vote for former Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ). No other candidate secured a percentage point. Another nine percent are undecided, while three percent said they would sit out the primary.

Trump Stops Short of Saying He’ll Cut off Money to Ukraine (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump declined to say in an interview that aired over the weekend that he would cut off funding to Ukraine.

The remarks were contained in the second part of an interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” that was recorded a little over a week ago.

“Look at all the money we’re giving to Ukraine and yet Ukraine was paying the Biden family a fortune,” Trump said referencing the military aide that U.S. is giving to Ukraine in its war against Russia and the alleged bribes that then-Vice President Biden received.

“Would you stop the money to Ukraine at this point?” Bartiromo asked.

“I’d get the war settled,” Trump responded. “The money is—, number one, I’d tell Europe, you gotta—, you’re about $100+ billion short. Okay? You gotta pay. Because Europe is smiling all the way to the bank. We’re giving all of these, this, Europe is doing very little compared to the United States. And it affects them more.”
